These morons are giving Italians a bad name -- the Mafiosi look pristine in comparison!*

But they worked in New York, and were paid for that work. Then, if they also have to pay home state taxes, the home state gives them a credit for the taxes paid in New York.
And he doesn't work in New York, either. So if you aren't a New York resident, and don't work in New York, you don't have to pay New York taxes.
Life Lesson:
When NY cries out for volunteers because whatever, Just. Say. No.
“But they worked in New York, and were paid for that work.”
So you think anyone, millions of people very year, who travels for business should pay taxes in the States they travel to? No revenue was conducted in those States so what money are they talking about?
NY is doing this to all out of state persons who came to NY to help out. Paid or volunteer, doesn’t matter.
No revenue was conducted in New York, so how can New York claim taxes on money that never appeared in their State?
New York is attempting to tax people for being present in their State, a head tax.
Ditto.
For New York, if you work more than 14 days, yes, you'd pay taxes for money you made there.
They tried to pass a universal law to bring that up to 30 days across the country:

OK, this is how it goes in tax-land.
New York State (NYS) AND New York City (NYC) both levy Income Tax on work performed in their territory. This is nothing unusual and is why Professional athletes file multiple state tax returns for the various away games.
These Samaritan Purse employees will get paychecks with the NYS & NYC deductions for the time worked there. When they file their 2020 tax returns in 2021, they will file a New York State Department of Taxation and Finance return. If they only worked in NYS & NYC for this period and resided elsewhere, they would file as non-resident and then see if their tax withholding qualifies for a refund (NYC tax is an almost guaranteed no-refund).
NYS & NYC are both high tax areas which is why there is a high out-migration by those who can. Which is another reason that Cuomo needs the tax revenue.
No good deed goes unpunished.

Good luck getting volunteers in the fall or next winter.
These volunteers RISKED THEIR LIVES to help NYC in a time of need. NYC will reap the whirlwind for their evil deed.
QUESTION...
Were out-of-state volunteers taxed for helping NYC during 9/11?
Patience, Grasshopper.
How many people you think went into this thinking they’d have to file and pay state and local taxes?
So you’re blaming SP for not disclosing the tax implications beforehand? Yeah, I think I’d like to know that before performing services
And if it’s “the law” why is it a news item? Gee, maybe because it surprised everyone? And why does Huomo make it public?
The amount of $$$ generated from this is a flyspeck in the universe to NY It’s not to the providers, including the cost of compliance
The bastard should have kept his mouth shut
I would prefer that Cuomo got the “Mussolini Treatment.”
The problem is they took care of covid 19 patients, did not knock them off so this is to make up for New York not being able to cash in on those patients.
Very appropriate.
I do not know. However, for what it may be worth, at that time both NYS & NYC had GOP leaders.
Goes like this...
I live in western NY state. If I go to NYC as part of my work assignment for more than 14 days I am obligated to pay NYC. Income taxes on that two weeks or whatever it is that I worked there. The key is to book a hotel in NJ not NY.
